First Workshop Helps Student Journalists
By EULA BATTLE
Five secondary schools and seven
on-campus organizations were represented at the first journalistic
workshop to be held at A&T College. The workshop was co-sponsored by The Register and the Department of English.
Highlighting the activities of
April 23 was a guided tour of the
Greensboro Daily News Plant. Previous arrangements had been made
and two guides awaited the group.
After a briefing, the group was
shown the machinery which is involved in printing a newspaper. It
was made quite clear that it takes
more than a typewriter and a
printing press to publish a paper.
Students were made aware of
some of the problems faced by
newspaper men in general. The
tour proved to be informative as
well as interesting.
Another informative and interesting aspect of the workshop was
a lecture-demonstration by Miss
Vivian Irving, assistant manager of
the Irving-Swain Press, Inc. She
said that it takes approximately
thirty hours to process and print
a four page paper the size of The
Register. If correct procedures
have not been used in typing, proofreading and layout, much more
time is involved in producing a
finished product.
Richard E. Moore, director of
publicity at Norfolk State (Virginia)
College, interested members of the
group in a lecture-discussion on
layout. He cautioned young journalists against using the same methods or plan of layout over and over.
He advocated experimentation and
exploration. No one plan is right,
yet something must be featured to
guide the reader. Mr. Moore was
editor of the 1953-54 Register.
Other participants in the workshop were Dr. Walter C. Daniel who
spoke at the morning session on
benefits to be derived from working on the school paper; Dr. William H. Robinson, who spoke on
feature writing; and Mr. William
D. Snider, editor of the Greensboro
Daily News.
Mr. Snider enlightened the group
on "Ethics of Journalism." He
informed the students of principles
and policies which a good newspaper adheres to. Several problems
are involved in giving fair coverage
to events which concern the public.
Stanley Johnson and James Wilder told of their experiences with
the college newspaper at the
luncheon. Both young men have
been concerned with the business
element of newspaper publication.
Secondary schools attending the
workshop were as follows: Second
Ward (Charlotte), Henderson Institute (Henderson), Notre Dame
(Greensboro), and H. B. Sugg,
(Farmville).
The following on-campus organizations were represented: The
Ayantee, The Beanie, Phi Beta
Lambda, The R. B. Harrison
Players, The James B. Dudley
Chapter of Student NEA, The
Fortnightly Club, and The Argron-
omy Club.
A&T's initial journalism workshop included enthusiastic participants from a few secondary schools
and reporters for college organizations. Following
a morning session and a tour of the Greensboro
Mill
Daily News and Record, the group paused in front
of Carver Hall for a picture. The workshop was
co-sponsored by The Register and the A&T Department of English.
Candidates for junior class officers are (left to right) Lee House, Jr.,
John Harrington, and Ophelia Graves.
Harrington, Graves, And House Run
For Class Officers In Spring Elections
John (Buzzy) Harrington is a
sophomore accounting major from
Bennettsville, South Carolina. He
is a candidate for the presidency of
the junior class. He has worked
actively as a member of the Student Government and served as
Freshman Representative to the
Student Government. He has recently been elected treasurer of
Phi Beta Lambda (business honor
society) and is presently a member of the A&T College Male singers.
Buzzy promises the following:
"If elected, I shall strive for
unity among the members of the
class, for 'united we stand; divided
we fall' — I am willing to work for
you. My major request is for your
co-operation."
Ophelia (Fee Fee) Graves is a
sophomore home economics (clothing) major from Burlington. She
is a candidate for Miss Junior. She
was first runner-up to Miss Graham County and also a runner-up
to Miss Freshman 1964-65. She was
an honor student during the fall
semester. This week she was inducted into the Alpha Kappa Alpha
Sorority. Ophelia possesses both
mental and physical qualities required for the position of Miss
Junior, according to her campaigners. She too is willing to work for
you and seeks your co-operation.
